    Amphibia is a Disney Channel and Disney XD series, created by Matt Braly. The series premiered on June 17, 2019, although it received an early preview on June 14, 2019 on DisneyNOW and YouTube. The show aired its final episode on May 14, 2022.

    Summary

    The show tells the heartfelt coming-of-age story of Anne Boonchuy—a self-centered 13-year-old who is magically transported to the fictitious world of Amphibia, a rural marshland full of frog-people and dangerous creatures. With the help of an excitable young frog named Sprig Plantar, Anne will transform into a hero and discover the first true friendship of her life.

    Season two finds Anne and the Plantars on a quest to unlock the mysteries of the music box as they leave the cozy confines of Wartwood for the distant city of Newtopia. On their journey, they will visit exotic new locations, uncover hidden secrets, and experience unexpected reunions as they continue to search for a way to get Anne home.

    The third season sees Anne and the Plantars transported from Amphibia to her hometown of Los Angeles, where the frog family will have to learn about the modern world and try to find a way home - all while hiding their identities as talking frog people with the help of Anne’s parents.

    Trivia

    • This is the first time Brenda Song has starred in a Disney Channel production since the ending of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody sequel, The Suite Life on Deck in 2011.
    • Amphibia is the first animated series in history to center on a Thai-American character.
    • The episode title cards depict a wood carving in darkness lit up with the title superimposed over it. This is an actual wood carving that is photographed and reused every episode.
    • The show was originally titled Amphibiland, but was changed due to sounding too similar to Amphibilands, the setting of the young adult novel series An Army of Frogs which was adapted into the animated series Kulipari, which ran for two seasons on Netflix from 2016 to 2018 and moved to Hulu in 2023 with its third season released in 2024. Both series also have Keith David voicing a main villain.
    • This is the second animated Disney production in which Anika Noni Rose, Keith David, and Jenifer Lewis appear, after The Princess and the Frog. Ironically, frogs were the main theme in that production, in which David also voiced the main villain.
    • Rebecca Sugar, of Steven Universe fame, wrote a song for season three's Christmas special. This marked the first time Sugar, who had primarily worked over at Warner Bros., was involved in a Disney production. Braly previously worked on the Steven Universe episode "Lars and the Cool Kids".
    • The show has several curiosities that occur once each season:
      • An appearance of Valeriana.
      • Anne and her friends fighting each other in the finale. Anne fights Sasha in "Reunion" and "True Colors", while Sasha fights Marcy possessed by the Core in "All In".
      • The last episode of each season has one of the three girls experiencing a near-death experience: Sasha in Season 1, Marcy in Season 2, Anne in Season 3.
    • Amphibia premiered on Disney Channel exactly 14 years after the series premiere of another animated series called The Buzz on Maggie.
    • This is the second animated Disney production in which Bill Farmer and Wallace Shawn appear, after A Goofy Movie.
    • This is the second animated Disney Production in which Keith David, Jeff Bennett, Cree Summer, April Winchell, Jim Cummings, and Tress MacNeille appear, after Gargoyles.
    • This was the first animated series by Disney Television Animation to be co-produced overseas with Saerom Animation.
    • This was the seventh series by Disney Television Animation to be serialized/story-driven, following Gargoyles, Gravity Falls, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, Tangled: The Series, DuckTales (2017), and Big Hero 6: The Series.
      • Big City Greens is partially story-driven given its ongoing continuity and becomes fully story-driven in the second half of Season 3B.
    • This was the last Disney Channel animated series as well as the last series by Disney Television Animation overall to be released in the 2010's.
    • This is the very first Disney Channel series where the protagonist dies and is resurrected.
